Press Café - Democracy in the 21st Century

Grab a drink and join one of the thematic discussion tables at the Brussels Press Club with guest experts to discuss the contemporary challenges faced by democratic movements today.

“Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the others.” ― the now famous Winston S. Churchill quote from the XXth century reads. With contemporary crises faced by EU today, it is time to critically re-evaluate if our adopted system works, for whom and if it is possible to make it work for everyone? 

Framework
The Press Café is a part of the Networking series organised by the World Solidarity Forum. Each participant will be invited to join the discussion circle of their interest. Rotation will take place every 20 minutes, enabling you to discuss with up to three experts!
